Probably wrong for doing so, but I've chucked on 125kg/ha of 27%. I'll stick more on if I think it needs it but thought that would get it going if nothing else, what I didn't want to happen was for the rain to dissappear off the forecast and the very expensive white stuff to dissappear off to the sky...Seeing those photos of silage going in, how much fert have people banged on for 2nd cut?
Struggling with figures here...
RB209 suggests for an extra 2t DM/ha you need 50kgN/ha, or 200kg/ha of 25% AN.
@ £650/t that is £130, or £65 per extra tonne DM. Plus application, harvest costs, etc. Is it worth it?
Oh and contractor is coming this week to spread some slurry as well
